This is just my way of doing it.” —Robert Therrien Inspired by representations of hair in classical sculpture and by the real beard of Constantin Brâncuşi, Robert Therrien explored the beard as a motif in both photography and in sculpture for an eight-year period (1999–2007). “No title (plaster beard)” (1999), is intentionally theatrical—made of carved plaster and complete with ear-loops—yet, it still implies a human face without ever depicting one. - “Robert Therrien,” on view at Gagosian, San Francisco, closes this Saturday, May 11.
